Notes
  • Significance: The Battle Creek hydroelectric system was a typical turn-of-the-century California hydroelectric system, characterized by high head plants, the use of the impulse wheel as a prime mover, and long water gathering networks. / The Battle Creek hydroelectric system consists of four power houses - Volta, South, Inskip and Coleman - located on Battle Creek in Shasta and Tehama Counties, California. This system, a rather typical turn-of-the-century California hydroelectric development, was erected between 1901 and 1911 by the Northern California Power Company and its predecessor, the Keswick Electric Power Company.
